Solid steel chunk, very simple and sturdy technical design, and still well wearable even not on a large wrist.

P.S. It's available for purchasing from our customer, recently serviced and tested with 12-month guarantee. Original non-service dial, bezel, hands, even crystal - great collectible timepiece.

It’s quite a collectible racing stopwatch with a lovely original hand-painted enamel dial, but can you see something ridiculous here? 😁😁😁

🎨🖌️⛵ Pierre Rigaud a Geneve hand-painted enamel dial, ~1780-1800, what a beauty!
🕛
How much would a modern watch cost with this kind of dial?

The Rigaud family, apparently full of talented painters, astronomers, clockmakers and watchmakers, originated in France before moving to Geneva, and are first mentioned in approximately 1720. Pierre Rigaud is an elusive figure, somewhat lost in the mists of time and history. But we do know that he was a popular watch manufacturer of his time, mentioned in Geneva from about 1750 – 1800 as a creator of watches of all kinds. He manufactured pocket watches in particular, some of which are still around today, and it is noted that he used classic movements with verge escapement.

Rigaud seemed to be more of an artist than a watchmaker: most of his surviving watches have beautiful and intricate little scenes painted either on the watch face itself or on the back of the pocket watch, such as a couple rowing a boat, and a farmhouse by a lake.

Two other possible relatives, a father and son bearing the name of Rigaud, are also mentioned in Geneva during Pierre Rigaud’s time there, and are noted to have been master watchmakers. It seems that many in the Rigaud family dynasty were very skilled in the art of horology.
